Painless Regulation.

1t is no longer a question of doubt-al-
though the contrary was once believed
that medicines which produce violent eff,
Seots are unsuited to other than desperate
emergencies. In other words, that super
potent remedies are calculated TO weaken
and injure the system rather than reform
its irregularities. Among medicines of de-
bilitating effect are cathartics and choia-
gogues which copiously and abruptly evac-
uate the bowels. Because it does not do
this, HoStetter's Stomach Bitters is prefer
able to the drenching class of purgatives.
Painless in its effects, it is sufficiently ac-
tive to remedy chrome constipation. 1t
relieves by invigorating the intestines, and
enables, not forces them to perform the duty
imposed upon them by nature. Promoting
the secretion of bile in normal quantities
by its healthful stimulating effect upon the
liver, it is eminently conducive to diges-
ton, and contributes in no small degree to
keep the bowels regular.
EARLY TEXAS misunderstanding to
a report in the Napa Register, Texas will
soon be competing with Californians in the
sale of table grapes in Eastern cities, and
at later period will probably include
other fruits. James NJ Thompson, who
recently came up from Texas, brought a
box of grapes, including the Muscat, Flame
Tokay and Black Malvoise, which differ
neither in appearance nor quality from the
California grapes of those varieties The
sampleswere gathered from cuttings planted
two years ago last February on Humphrey
Coopers place in Frio county Mr. Cooper
went from Lake county to Texas about
four years ago, and there experimental in
grape-growing, with the result noted. His
Sweetwaters ripened and were harvested by
June 18th, and later varieties were fit for
the market by June Goth. Mr. Thomp-
son, who owns 10000 acres in Frio and
rents II 600 more, some time ago had soil
analysed with a view of ascertaining its
productive qualities, and the verdict was
favorable to fruit culture. As Frio is on
the line Of the International Railroad and
only 500 miles from st. Louis, his grapes
will find quick road to market and that
eager demand which always greets the first
fruit of the season.

In every respect, Ayers Hair Vigor
never fails to restore the youthful fresh
ness and color to faded and gray hair.
1t also prevents the hair from falling,
eradicates dandruff, and stimulates
weak hair to vigorous growth.
Five years ago, my hair, which was
quite gray, commenced falling, and, in
spite of cutting, and various prepare
tions faithfully applied, became thinner
every day. l was finally persuaded to
try Ayers Hair Vigor. Two bottles of
this remedy not only stopped the hair
from falling, but also restored its orig
NAL color, and stimulated new growth.

In an address before Post 2, G. A.

gave an account of an old hero that
was received with great applause BY
the veterans present. The day referred
to in the address was April 9. 1865, and
the scene near Appomattox Court

the staff of Major General Sheridan,
and Julius, his horse, were plotting
General Grant up to the Court House
